Her Mate, The School's Player novel Chapter 59

"Pickles and ice-cream, that's an odd combination," he chortles.

"That's pregnancy for you," I finish.

"Are you okay with dealing with everything, you're not having worries or second thoughts are you?" he asks worriedly.

"Yeah, it's just the morning sickness really, but it should go away soon probably and no, I have no worries or second thoughts." He wraps his arms around my waist and hugs me.

"Good, because everything's going to be okay, it's going to be just you, me and our perfect babies."

"And the pack," I add.

"Yes, and our pack," he chuckles. Suddenly Ellen screams with delight as she flits away from Dean. They were running around the hall together. Dean catches her and they fall to the ground, laughing. He wraps his arms around her and she cuddles in his chest. That was Damian and I a few weeks ago. It's weird how a few weeks can change everything. I miss those sweet memories when we used to run away from each other and then kiss. Damian gives me a concerned look when I look back at him. "What's wrong?"

"I miss those memories we had... When we chased each other, fell to the ground, laughed then kissed. We can't do that anymore..."

"Baby, we can do it in a few months time and anyways we're going to be making many more memories soon, we already are and I don't know about you but these memories are more important to me," he confesses, stroking my belly gently.

"They're more important to me too," I agree. I put my hand on top of his and he smiles widely. Ellen comes up behind Damian and hugs him from the back while Dean comes up behind me.

"Hey, big brother, everything okay?" Ellen asks.

"Perfectly fine," Damian replies. She glances down at our hands on our babies then grins.

"You feeling okay, Amber?" Dean asks, giving me a worried look.

"Yeah, just tired and hungry," I say and they chuckle.

"Let's get you that ice-cream," Damian smiles, taking my hands and leading me back to the pack house. I continue to eat my pickles during the stroll. Damian sits me in the living room while he gets it. "Chocolate?"

"Oh yeah! No, wait, strawberry, no vanilla!" I say with excitement.

"How about all of them," he chuckles. I nod my head viciously and he laughs, kisses my head then departs to get my lovely ice-cream. Damian flits back in the room and passes me the ice-cream. It tastes like heaven! I dip some pickles in it and take a bite.

"Oh God, I can't even watch!" Kevin says, covering his eyes.

"That's a horrible combination!" Hannah says in a disgusted tone.

"It tastes nice!" I break in.

"Let me see then," Devon says, taking my spoon. I grab the spoon off him and hit him.

"You don't love me! I'm hurt, Damian!" Paul pouts with a playful grin. I lick the bowl clean from all ice-cream.

"You're an animal!" Rachel laughs.

"I can't help it, I think I'm going to go for a sleep, goodnight everyone!" I say, getting up and going up the stairs.

"Whoa, Amber, how come so early?" Damian asks, calling me back.

"My back hurts and I want to lie down," I say.

"I'll give you a massage while you're lying down." He follows me up to our bedroom and I start undressing, leaving just my bra and underwear on. "Damn, you're so sexy!"

A smirk spreads across my face. I get on the bed and get on my stomach, carefully making sure I don't lean too hard on the babies and hurt them. He lays his hands on my back and gently caresses it. He gets a lotion beside our bed and rubs it over my back. He really does do great massages. I let a moan out and he leans down and kisses my back. He kisses up my back to my neck. Every kiss was gentle and soft on my skin. The tingling never stopped when he pulled back. It stayed tingling like an after effect.

"I love you, Amber," he whispers in my ear then bites it. I get on my back and pull him by the shirt to my face. He places his soft lips on mine.

"I want you, Damian," I purr as he pulls back.

"Mmhhhmm, I want you too, baby."
